QTravel is developed using KDevelop. To install it on your handheld system, you can either choose the ipkg-binary for qtopia or grab the sources (tgz for kdevelop 2.1) and compile it on your system.
For this, you need a linux system including cross compilation environment like it is described at ipaqhelp. Here you can either find, how to setup your machine for crosscompilation and a lot of tips developing for linux handhelds.
QTravel is available as an ipkg (binary compatible with QPE 1.4.0 or QTopia 1.5.0) or as a source tarball for KDevelop use. You can load it from my homepage qtravel.
In order to compile and install QTravel on your system, type the following in the base directory of the Qtravel distribution:
% ./configure
% make
% make install
Since Qtravel uses
autoconfyou should have not trouble compiling it. Should you run into problems please report them to the the author at Werner Schulte
Grab the ipk files from my homepage and transfer them to the handheld. Unpack them using
ipkg install qphoto_x.y.z_arm.ipk
and clear the ipg itself.
Alternatively, you can also add http://www.uv-ac.de/ipkgs
to your /etc/ipkg.conf. Doing update;ipkg install qphoto
will install qphoto. Dont forget libqte_2.3.2_jpeg_arm and the libjpeg
itself.
Before you can start, QTravel needs to know, where its configuration is stored. For this, you have to setup an appropriate environment variable QTRAVELCFG. On your handheld, you can do that in the /etc/profile (assuming you use the user root). Insert the line
export QTRAVELCFG=/root/Applications/docs/qtravel
assuming you are using bash or similar.
Note
From version 0.1.1 on this is done by the installation process postinstall.
To get the environment variable working, you have to reboot your handheld.
This is the location where QTravel finds its configuration file. The following paragraph shows the config file as an example.
<?qtravel version="0.1.1" type="config"?>
